Having Fun Yet?

That is the question I asked myself yesterday when working on my grandson's sports rug. The answer was no. Was having so little fun that in the middle of the afternoon when the temperature was 90 degrees went outside in the bright sunlight to trim a forsythia bush. After about half an hour later decided it might be more fun to hook inside on the Red Skins logo after all.

There's still a little more of the Redskins logo to hook in the white circle but once that logo is done it might be a little more fun. Looking at what I've done do see some changes that COULD be made ~ Uh, but choose not to. After all I'm not entering this into a competition or Celebrations. My grandson will recognize it as his favorite football team.Thankfully the most dreaded part of the motif is hooked and for that I'm grateful. Only a little more of the white inside the motif, blue background and border. Tonight I'll finish the motif and the tomorrow plan to have fun doing what I want to do.....working on a fun rug for me.Thinking of a particular friend of mine and asking you to pull your butt up off the sofa, grab your hook, a rug in progress ` GET HAPPY with a glass of wine and a good video.Hope you all have a good evening.Saundra

About Me

This is Ben, a handsome Rottie adopted from a local vet referral.
I prefer wide cut primitive style rugs but I have hooked a memorial profile of my departed Rottweilers in #3 and it was beautiful. I know that I can successfuly hook narrow cuts but my heart is with wide cut primitives as our foremothers use to do.
I always told Shadow (my departed Shepherd mix) that she would be a wide cut girl and I hooked her profile in #8 strips in 2013.
